Low Cost. The reason I chose SRU is because it was the cheapest out of all the universities that I did look into.

Life Long Friendships. Coming here I have made so many friends that I hope to keep for a long time. It's a great support system for me, because I have people that I can talk to you when I need to or just have a good laugh with.

Wonderful atmosphere. Being in Slippery Rock is amazing anytime of you. It's a wonderful little town that has a wonderful community. It's a small town so there really is not that much to do but with almost 9000 college students and an elementary, middle, and high school right by. there is always things going on, so this town is never quiet. I love it here and it's going to be hard for me to leave with graduation comes around.

SRU is a university anyone should attend that wants a real education and a connection with those teaching them. I find that I have a closer relationship with some of my professors here than I did in my small high school back home. Along with this connection, there is a diverse collection of classes that someone can take here too. I am a science major, but I'm going to be learning Japanese in the spring. The possibilities here are endless. And lastly why someone should attend SRU is because it is a beautiful campus with kind people. Settled next to a small town in the hills of Pennsylvania, this campus is spread out with lovely walking paths and trees everywhere. You always see a smiling face when walking around, too. It's nice, when away from home, to find that this place can also be a home.

They offer majors and programs mainly revolving around the science field that most college do not offer. They are a small little town that is secure and safe but large enough to do something new each night. Finally, SRU care about the success of their students and try to get them the best education possible while still enjoying college life.

Slippery Rock has a beautiful campus, well designed core courses and numerous other fun classes to take and learn something new not related to your major, and the overall attitude of the students, professors, and faculty make it a fun, positive environment to live and attend school.

The first reason is the fact that the students and professors here are just absolutely amazing. Everyone's goal around here is to make sure that you succeed in whatever you want to do. The professors really try and learn your name unlike some of the larger university. A second reason is that the campus is positively gorgeous. It is not located in the city so everything is green and fresh, though it may get cold and white in the winter, it is still beautiful to look at. Finally, someone should attend SRU because they cannot envision themselves at any other place. Everyone around here loves it and cannot imagine going to another school. Most of the seniors are so upset to leave because they knew this school was for them and they had such an amazing time.

There are a lot of great programs available. Most of the teachers within these departments are supportive and truly do care about the students. Even if you have a general idea of what you want to do, there are multiple majors that focus on the same thing with a slight variation in overall focus, or setting.

Slippery Rock provides several unique opportunities compared to other schools. For example, we are the first school on the east coast to have a club goalball team.

It is located a short distance from Erie and an even shorter distance from Pittsburgh, both make for great day trips on the weekend.

We have a really good exercise science program that can prepare you for either a job in the health and fitness industry or SRU's physical therapy school. Slippery Rock is a relatively small school, so it is easy to navigate. Most of the professors that I have had were very helpful and attentive.

One of the top reasons someone should attend Slippery Rock University is because the campus is beautiful in all seasons! The campus has an older feel to it that makes you become interested in learning more about it, and gives it a great historic feel. Stones and trees surround the classroom buildings creating beauty every where you go! Another reason someone should attend Slippery Rock University is the great professors who spend their time furthering your education. The teachers are always easily made available to you when you need something. The professors provide answers to all questions you may have inside and outside of the classroom. They get to know you as a person and not just a student. Another reason someone should attend Slippery Rock University is because of the reasonable tuition price. Slippery Rock is one of the least expensive universities around, and will provide you with everything you need to be successful in your future. The point of getting a great education is to one day get a high paying job that you love. How does paying thousands and thousands of dollars in student loans on top of supporting a family and working sound? Sounds wonderful without the student loans part!

If someone is looking for a school that is not in a big city, Slippery Rock is the place. Someone who wants a small campus but large enough where they won't know each and every person, would fit in at Slippery Rock. Attend Slippery Rock for a "Rock Solid" education!
